Free yourself from the destructive cycle of compulsive skin picking

Exercises to help you to break the habit of the behavior.
Techniques to reduce stress and anxiety naturally, thus reducing the body’s need to pick.
How to release negative thoughts and emotions holding you back.
Lifestyle and diet changes to restore physiological balance, including which foods to avoid, which to eat more of, and natural supplements to help you stop.
How to stay motivated, inspired and positive.

This comprehensive guide is a lifesaver for those suffering from skin picking, and is also invaluable for health professionals interested in learning how to help their patients who pick.
